Waimea Plumeria (Frangipani) Tree
Introducing the Waimea Plumeria, a stunning beauty reminiscent of Leona Hoke but with distinct differences that set it apart. This captivating plumeria variety is known for its intensely red-pink flowers with striking orange centers, creating a visually stunning display that is both elegant and vibrant. Here's everything you need to know about this exceptional plumeria:
Intensely Red-Pink Blooms: Waimea graces your garden with intensely red-pink blooms that are truly a sight to behold. Each flower features rounded and overlapping petals, measuring 3 inches in size and boasting a velvety texture. The center of the flower is a beautiful peachy-orange, while the outer petals have a reddish-purple outline, adding depth and contrast to the overall appearance.
Sweet Fragrance: As you admire the beauty of Waimea's blooms, you'll also be enchanted by its sweet fragrance. The scent is reminiscent of a spicy perfume, making it a sensory delight in your garden.
Average to Tall Growth Habit: Waimea exhibits an average to tall growth habit, with huge branches, leaves, and bloom heads. While its initial growth may be more arched and crawling, it gradually becomes more upright as it matures. The leaves are typically 10 inches or smaller, and the plumeria sets seed, allowing you to propagate new plants.
Distinctive Scent and Color Stability: One of Waimea's standout qualities is its distinctive scent and color stability. Even in direct Florida sunlight, the flowers maintain their intense red-pink hue and continue to exude their unique spicy perfume-like fragrance.
Exciting Discovery in Hawaii: Waimea was discovered in Hawaii by Jim Little's son, Clark, making it an exciting and treasured addition to the world of plumerias.
